Andrea Anders has also appeared in “Necessary Roughness,” “Mr. Sunshine” and a variety of other projects. As for her TV career, she said, “I absolutely love it. And I’m ridiculously fortunate to get a chance to experience the sitcom world. The schedule is extremely easy, and you get fed as an artist because you’re not only working on the project, but you get to work with cameras and you get the audience there.”

As for comedy versus drama, Andrea Anders said, “For some reason, comedy just comes easily to me, and I feel like I can do it. I don’t have any doubt. When I work on drama, there’s always a sense of ‘Did I find this person’s truth at the bottom of this?’ And it’s hard to tell sometimes.”
